Safdar Ahmed visited Sydneys Villawood Immigration Detention Centre in 2011. He brought pencils and sketchbooks with him and began drawing with the detainees. Their stories are told in Still Alive.
Weaving journalism, history, and autobiography, Still Alive is an intensely personal indictment of Australias refugee detention policies and procedures , which are not unlike those in many Western nations. It is also a searching reflection on the redemptive power of art. (And death metal.)
